The Tennis Institute is Baltimore's foremost tennis academy. Staffed by experienced and knowledgable professional instructors under the direction of Lenny Scheuermann and Thiha Htwar, the Tennis Institute can improve your game no matter whether you are a beginner, an intermediate, or an advanced player. Individual or group lessons are available and all ages can participate. The Tennis Institute, now located at the Merritt Athletic Clubs at Bare Hills, is the former head teaching pro the Green Spring Racquet Club.

The Tennis Institute is designed with the concept of the whole person in mind. We believe that championship players are not champions unless they are championship people as well. Our methods include the best of the group teaching methods combined with realistic goal-setting training in a "You Can Do It" atmosphere.



We also emphasize healthy attitudes toward competition since it is important to the player's mastery of the game and player-parent happiness in both home and tournament environment.



In our summer camp, each morning begins with a 15-minute positive attitude training course which includes many distinguished guest speakers such as: Former World-Ranked Tennis Pro, Elise Burgin; TV Sports Announcer, Jo-Ann Russell; Former NFL Running Back, Joe Washington, and many others.



In addition to professional coaching, our goal setting mental attitude program, and an on-going exercise program, we offer video taping for all.
